Definitions

  • This invention concerns novel compounds that modulate potassium channels.
  • the compounds are useful for the treatment and prevention of diseases and disorders which are affected by activities of potassium ion channels.
  • One such condition is seizure disorders.
  • Epilepsy is a well-known neurological disease, found in about 3% of the population. Approximately 30% of patients with epilepsy do not respond to currently available therapies. Retigabine (N-[2-amino-4-(4-fluorobenzylamino) phenyl]carbamic acid, ethyl ester] (U.S. Pat. No. 5,384,330) has been found to be an effective treatment of a broad range of models of seizure disorders, and it appears to have an unusual mechanism of action. Bialer, M. et al., Epilepsy Research 1999, 34, 1-41; Wuttke, T. V., et al., Mol. Pharmacol. 2005, 67, 1009-1017.
  • Retigabine has also been found to be useful in treating pain, including neuropathic pain. Blackburn-Munro and Jensen, Eur. J. Pharmacol. 2003, 460, 109-116; Wickenden, A. D. et al., Expert Opin. Ther. Patents, 2004, 14(4).
  • Retigabine has been shown to increase the conductance of the channels at the resting membrane potential, with a possible mechanism involving binding of the activation gate of the KCNQ 2/3 channel. Wuttke, T. V., et al., Mol. Pharmacol. 2005, op. cit. With increased sophistication of research in this area, retigabine has also been shown to increase neuronal M currents and to increase the channel open probability of KCNQ 2/3 channels. Delmas, P. and Brown, D. A. Nat. Revs Neurosci., vol. 6, 2005, 850-62; Tatulian, L. and Brown, D. A., J. Physiol., (2003) 549, 57-63.
  • the most therapy-resistant type of seizure is the so-called “complex partial seizure.”
  • Retigabine has been found to be particularly potent in models for drug-refractory epilepsy.
  • Retigabine is also active in several other seizure models. Because of retigabine's broad spectrum of activity and unusual molecular mechanism, there is hope that retigabine will be effective in management of several seizure types, including the complex partial seizure, and in treatment of hitherto untreatable forms of epilepsy.

The mixture was then cooled and filtered on Celite. The filtrate was poured on ice, and the solution was brought to pH 4 with concentrated HCl and extracted with ethyl acetate (3 ⁇ 100 ml). The combined extracts were washed with 2 N HCl (3 ⁇ 100 mL), saturated NaHCO 3 , and brine. The organic solution was dried over MgSO 4 and concentrated.
  • 4,6-Dimethylindole (1.08 g) was dissolved in acetic acid (20 ml), and sodium cyanoborohydride (2.3 g) was added portionwise at 15° C. The mixture was stirred at said temperature for one hour and poured into ice water. Saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate was added to neutralize the mixture and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in benzene, and acetic anhydride (840 mg) was added, which was followed by stirring at room temperature for one hour.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/964,526, filed Aug. 13, 2007, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention concerns novel compounds that modulate potassium channels. The compounds are useful for the treatment and prevention of diseases and disorders which are affected by activities of potassium ion channels. One such condition is seizure disorders.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Epilepsy is a well-known neurological disease, found in about 3% of the population. Approximately 30% of patients with epilepsy do not respond to currently available therapies. Retigabine (N-[2-amino-4-(4-fluorobenzylamino) phenyl]carbamic acid, ethyl ester] (U.S. Pat. No. 5,384,330) has been found to be an effective treatment of a broad range of models of seizure disorders, and it appears to have an unusual mechanism of action. Bialer, M. et al., Epilepsy Research 1999, 34, 1-41; Wuttke, T. V., et al., Mol. Pharmacol. 2005, 67, 1009-1017. Retigabine has also been found to be useful in treating pain, including neuropathic pain. Blackburn-Munro and Jensen, Eur. J. Pharmacol. 2003, 460, 109-116; Wickenden, A. D. et al., Expert Opin. Ther. Patents, 2004, 14(4).
“Benign familial neonatal convulsions,” an inherited form of epilepsy, has been associated with mutations in the KCNQ2/3 channels. Biervert, C. et al., Science 1998, 27, 403-06; Singh, N. A., et al., Nat. Genet. 1998, 18, 25-29; Charlier, C. et al., Nat. Genet. 1998, 18, 53-55; Rogawski, Trends in Neurosciences 2000, 23, 393-398. Subsequent investigations have established that one important site of action of retigabine is the KCNQ2/3 channel. Wickenden, A. D. et al., Mol. Pharmacol. 2000, 58, 591-600; Main, M. J. et al., Mol. Pharmacol. 2000, 58, 253-62. Retigabine has been shown to increase the conductance of the channels at the resting membrane potential, with a possible mechanism involving binding of the activation gate of the KCNQ 2/3 channel. Wuttke, T. V., et al., Mol. Pharmacol. 2005, op. cit. With increased sophistication of research in this area, retigabine has also been shown to increase neuronal M currents and to increase the channel open probability of KCNQ 2/3 channels. Delmas, P. and Brown, D. A. Nat. Revs Neurosci., vol. 6, 2005, 850-62; Tatulian, L. and Brown, D. A., J. Physiol., (2003) 549, 57-63.
The most therapy-resistant type of seizure is the so-called “complex partial seizure.” Retigabine has been found to be particularly potent in models for drug-refractory epilepsy. Retigabine is also active in several other seizure models. Because of retigabine's broad spectrum of activity and unusual molecular mechanism, there is hope that retigabine will be effective in management of several seizure types, including the complex partial seizure, and in treatment of hitherto untreatable forms of epilepsy. Porter, Roger J., Nohria, Virinder, and Rundfeldt, Chris, Neurotherapeutics, 2007, vol. 4, 149-154.
The recognition of retigabine as a potassium channel modulator has inspired a search for other—and, hopefully, better—potassium channel modulators among compounds with structural features similar to those of retigabine.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In designing compounds with therapeutic properties superior to those of retigabine, shown below,
Figure US07786146-20100831-C00007
and in optimizing the desirable therapeutic properties of this compound, the present inventors have discovered that compounds of formula I have surprising and exceptional activity toward potassium channels, as evidenced by potent activity, as measured in the rubidium (Rb+) efflux assay described below.
The inventors have further discovered that substitution at both the 2- and 6-positions of the central benzene ring confers a number of desirable properties, including both increased potency and increased stability in vivo. Thus, 2,6-di-substitution is a critical feature of some embodiments of this invention.
The inventors have further discovered that, in particular, alkyl substitution at both the 2- and 6-positions of the central benzene ring confers desirable properties, including both increased potency and increased stability in vivo. Thus, 2,6-dimethyl substitution is a critical feature of one embodiment of this invention.
Moreover, the inventors have also discovered that substitution with alkoxide groups at both the 2- and 6-positions of the central benzene ring also confers a number of desirable properties, including both increased potency and increased stability in vivo. Thus, such substitution is a critical feature of another embodiment of this invention.
Moreover, the inventors have also discovered that substitution at the 2- and 6-positions of the central benzene ring with substituents chosen from halogen, trifluoromethyl, and methoxy also confers a number of desirable properties, including both increased potency and increased stability in vivo. Thus, such substitution is a critical feature of yet another embodiment of this invention.
Among the embodiments of this invention, the most active compounds display a 40- to 400-fold improvement over retigabine, with the most promising compounds displaying EC50s in the single-digit nanomolar range. Activities of several compounds of this invention are shown in Table 1 below. The activity of retigabine is shown for comparative purposes.
As used herein the term “potassium channel modulator” refers to a compound capable of causing an increase in potassium channel currents. It also refers to a compound capable of increasing the KCNQ2/3 channel open probability. For preliminary testing of compounds for potassium channel modulating ability, the inventors have employed the rubidium ion efflux test described below.
As contemplated by this invention, compounds of formula I are designed for oral or intravenous dosing of up to approximately 2000 mg per day. Thus, this invention contemplates solutions and suspensions of compounds of formula I formulated for intravenous administration. Similarly, solutions and suspensions comprising a syrup such as sorbitol or propylene glycol, among many other examples, in addition to compounds of formula I, suitable for oral pediatric administration, are also contemplated. Additionally, both chewable and non-chewable tablets comprising compounds of formula I, along with pharmaceutically acceptable tabletting agents and other pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and excipients, are also contemplated.
As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” comprises such excipients, binders, lubricants, tabletting agents and disintegrants as are typically used in the art of formulation of pharmaceuticals. Examples of such agents include—but are not limited to—microcrystalline cellulose, lactose, starch, and dicalcium phosphate, and Providone. However, in view of the incompatibility of primary amines with lactose, this invention does not contemplate compositions in which active ingredients with primary amine groups are combined with lactose. Additionally, disintegrants such as sodium starch glycolate, lubricants such as stearic acid and SiO2, and solubility enhancers such as cyclodextrins, among many other examples for each group, are contemplated. Such materials and the methods of using them are well known in the pharmaceutical art. Additional examples are provided in Kibbe, Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients, London, Pharmaceutical Press, 2000.
The invention also contemplates pharmaceutical formulations for administration to animals, comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I and a veterinary acceptable carrier. Any animal that is susceptible to seizure disorders is included within the scope of this invention.

4,6-Dimethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (2)
In a flask fitted with a Dean-Stark trap, p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (132 g, 0.69 mol) in 500 ml of benzene was heated at reflux for 2 hours. A solution of 3,5-dimethylphenylhydrazine hydrochloride (34.5 g, 0.2 mol), ethyl pyruvate (23.2 g, 0.2 mol), and p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (0.85 g, 0.005 mol) in 500 ml of benzene, which had been refluxed for 2 hours with water removed through a Dean-Stark apparatus was then added. The resulting mixture was heated at reflux and stirred overnight. After cooling, the solution was treated with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and diluted with methylene chloride. The organic portion was washed twice with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by ISCO (hexane/EtOAc, 0-30%, 40 min) to give yellow solids, which was recrystallized from hexane/ethyl acetate (10%) to give colorless needles (35.6 g, 82%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz): δ 11.68 (brs, 1H, exchangeable with D2O, NH), 7.12 (s, 1H), 7.05 (s, 1H), 6.71 (s, 1H), 4.33 (q, J=6.8 Hz, 2H), 2.44 (s, 3H), 2.35 (s, 3H), 1.34 (t, J=6.8 Hz, 3H).
4,6-Dimethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (3)
A mixture of 4,6-dimethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (22 g, 0.1 mol) and lithium hydroxide (4.8 g, 0.2 mol) in 400 ml of ethanol was heated at reflux overnight. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in water and neutralized with 10% HCl to pH<3. The resulting precipitates were filtered and washed with water and dried in vacuo at 40° C. to give white solids (18 g, 95%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz): δ 12.73 (brs, 1H, exchangeable with D2O, NH), 11.55 (brs, 1H, exchangeable with D2O, NH), 7.06 (s, 1H), 7.03 (s, 1H), 6.69 (s, 1H), 2.44 (s, 3H), 2.35 (s, 3H).
4,6-Dimethyl-1H-indole (4)
Method A: A mixture of 4,6-dimethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (3.61 g, 19.09 mmol, 1 equiv), copper powder (850 mg, 13.36 mmol, 0.7 equiv), and freshly distilled quinoline (50 mL) were brought at reflux for 2 h. The mixture was then cooled and filtered on Celite. The filtrate was poured on ice, and the solution was brought to pH 4 with concentrated HCl and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 ml). The combined extracts were washed with 2 N HCl (3×100 mL), saturated NaHCO3, and brine. The organic solution was dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The residue was flash chromatographed on silica gel using hexane-AcOEt (85-15) to give a white solid (2.6 g, 94%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz): δ 10.8 (brs, 1H, exchangeable with D2O, NH), 7.19 (t, J=2 Hz, 1H), 6.99 (s, 1H), 6.62 (s, 1H), 6.36 (t, J=2 Hz, 1H), 2.41 (s, 3H), 2.34 (s, 3H).
Method 2: This indole also was prepared heating 26 g (0.14 mol) of 4,6-dimethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid to 230° C. for 3 hours. After cooling, the reactant was distilled under reduced pressure (2.9-4.4 mmHg) at 130-135° C. to give a pure product as colorless oil (15.6 g, 77%).
4,6-Dimethylindoline (5) and 1-Acetyl-4,6-dimethylindoline (6) are prepared by the following procedure.
4,6-Dimethylindole (1.08 g) was dissolved in acetic acid (20 ml), and sodium cyanoborohydride (2.3 g) was added portionwise at 15° C. The mixture was stirred at said temperature for one hour and poured into ice water. Saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate was added to neutralize the mixture and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in benzene, and acetic anhydride (840 mg) was added, which was followed by stirring at room temperature for one hour. The reaction mixture was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and saturated brine, and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was chromatographed (ISCO, hexane/EtOAc, 0-40%, 40 min) to give 1.3 g of 1-acetyl-4,6-dimethylindoline.

Biological Results
Compounds of this invention formula were evaluated as potassium channel modulators by measuring rhubidium ion release in the following assay.
Methods: PC-12 cells were grown at 37° C. and 5% CO2 in DMEM/F12 Medium supplemented with 10% horse serum, 5% fetal bovine serum, 2 mM glutamine, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 U/ml streptomycin. They were plated in poly-D-lysine-coated 96-well cell culture microplates at a density of 40,000 cells/well and differentiated with 100 ng/ml NGF-7s for 2-5 days. For the assay, the medium was aspirated and the cells were washed once with 0.2 ml in wash buffer (25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 0.8 mM NaH2PO4, 2 mM CaCl2). The cells were then loaded with 0.2 ml Rb+ loading buffer (wash buffer plus 5.4 mM RbCl2, 5 mM glucose) and incubated at 37° C. for 2 h. Attached cells were quickly washed three times with buffer (same as Rb+ loading buffer, but containing 5.4 mM KCl instead of RbCl) to remove extracellular Rb+. Immediately following the wash, 0.2 ml of depolarization buffer (wash buffer plus 15 mM KCl) with or without compounds was added to the cells to activate efflux of potassium ion channels. After incubation for 10 min at room temperature, the supernatant was carefully removed and collected. Cells were lysed by the addition of 0.2 ml of lysis buffer (depolarization buffer plus 0.1% Triton X-100) and the cell lysates were also collected. If collected samples were not immediately analyzed for Rb+ contents by atomic absorption spectroscopy (see below), they were stored at 4° C. without any negative effects on subsequent Rb+ analysis.
The concentration of Rb+ in the supernatants (Rb+ Sup) and cell lysates (Rb+ Lys) was quantified using an ICR8000 flame atomic absorption spectrometer (Aurora Biomed Inc., Vancouver, B.C.) under conditions defined by the manufacturer. One 0.05 ml samples were processed automatically from microtiter plates by dilution with an equal volume of Rb+ sample analysis buffer and injection into an air-acetylene flame. The amount of Rb+ in the sample was measured by absorption at 780 nm using a hollow cathode lamp as light source and a PMT detector. A calibration curve covering the range 0-5 mg/L Rb+ in sample analysis buffer was generated with each set of plates. The percent Rb+ efflux (F) was defined by
F=[Rb+ Sup/(Rb+ Sup+Rb+ Lys)]×100%.
The effect (E) of a compound was defined by:
E=[(F c −F b)/(F s −F b)]×100%
where the Fc is the efflux in the presence of compound in depolarization buffer, Fb is the efflux in basal buffer, and FS is the efflux in depolarization buffer, and Fc is the efflux in the presence of compound in depolarization buffer. The effect (E) and compound concentration relationship was plotted to calculate an EC50 value, a compound's concentration for 50% of maximal Rb+ efflux. The results are shown below. Legend: A: EC50=1 nM-50 nM; B: EC50=50 nM-100 nM; C: EC50=100 nM-200 nM; D: EC50=200 nM-500 nM.
